I took some Ibuprofen (Advil), but my head still feels like someone's taking a screwdriver to my head. :(

Excedrin

I wear sunglasses sometimes due to the glare from my computer screens.

Most helpful if it is killing me, ask bf for head massage and take a nap.

Pop about 7 vicodin and wake up in about 2 days in some strange, dirty Mexican cantina bathroom with Juan with no headache!

Depends on the type of person you are. Sex is a good way to relieve pain of all sorts. Also it could be that your monitors refresh rate for your screen is set to under 60 herts, put it above 70 that should help if it is lower than 60, also, you could suffer from migrains ( I have been clinically diagnosed with these for about 6 years now) I usually drink some peppermint tea, pop a few asprin and try to sleep ^.^

I get those. :(
Take more than the bottle says to take. When it's a real bad headache I'll take up to 4.

Drink water/juice.
Close your eyes.
Squeeze this spot around the bridge of your nose.
Put pressure on both of your temples.
Rub different area's of the back of your neck.
Wet rag over your eyes and forehead.

When all else fails, you gotta go lay down and try to sleep. You should feel better when you get up.

And Pure, having sex is like the last thing I'd want to do on most of my headaches. Exertion is usually what brings em on, and more exertion just makes it almost unbearable.

Sleep is your best bet Hello Kitty.

Sleep, stop using your PC, turn off some lights, or take some painkillers.

Like I said it depends on the kind of person you are. I personally find that sexual release gets rid of headaches for me but thats just me :oops:

Well cuddling and kissing might do it for a light headache, simply cos that kinda thing brings out edorphines and all that, and it's taking your mind off of the headache.

...I just cannot see how gettin busy could relieve anybody's headache though. I'd be dying. But I guess that's just me? :(

Nah, I think sex would definitely make a headache worse.

Temporily however, it would go away.

Not all. I guarantee I'd be having a hard time concentrating on the good feelings when I've got POUND POUND POUND going off in my head with every POUND POUND POUND me and my friend are makin.

Lol I thought that was funny sorry. 8) True though. It'd be getting worse with every second too. I'd only keep going for my friend's sake. :wink:

Excuse me for being a bit randy, but as far as sex goes, my headaches usually get a lot worse while I have an erection (the harder, the worse). But an orgasm definitely helps the pain go away.

ummm... try massaging this triangle area between your thumb and index finger (i hope its an understandable desc. :/)

for stomach ache massaging feet should be quite helpful.

Lie down in a room with no lights, but it still isn't too dark.
Make sure that you are comfortable with the temperature.
Close eyes.

You don't ever really have to sleep, but I find that lying down helps alot.
Also, it's best not to go on the computer, but since you want to read our advise, I guess you'll be the special exception :)

I tear it up. ^^
you might just be depriving yourself from caffeine or something..

Overconsumption of caffeine is a cause of headaches, not a remedy.

I myself use Ibuprofen for the matter. Don't know anything else.

Ibuprofen or most other NSAID's (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) tend to give problems with your intenstens and your stomach on number one.

If you use them frequently you'll get some of these adverse effects
    * Nausea/Vomiting
    * Dyspepsia
    * Gastric ulceration/bleeding
    * Diarrhea


And you might face some renal downsides.

Try to minimize the use and if the headaches are frequently,go see a doctor.
